English Translation

Jabir (Allah be pleased with him) reported that Allah's Messenger (may peace he upon him) said:

When any one of you is invited to a feast, he should accept it. He may eat if he likes, or he may abandon (eating) if he likes. Ibn Mathanni did not make mention of the word" feast".
